Delmas had surgery performed on his left knee by Dr. James Andrews, one of the world's top sports surgeons, yesterday to assist in his recovery from knee soreness that developed early in training camp.

"The one guy that has been down a little bit longer than expected has been Delmas, but we're not going to put him out there if he's still sore," Schwartz previously said. "Delmas has played a lot of football for us and does well. It gives other guys some opportunity to step in and get more reps.

"We're not at the point now that we can't go out and accomplish anything. We still got a lot of work to do. We got a lot of young players back there that need every single rep we can give them."
